Our verdict

A chicken and salmon dry food for adult cats that targets hairballs with beet pulp and weight with L-Carnitine. It contains fish and poultry, so cats with sensitivities to either should avoid it.

Overview

An owner who finds hairballs on the rug gets a dry food with beet pulp fiber built in. This IAMS Proactive Health recipe combines real chicken and salmon with L-Carnitine for weight support.

A hairball formula that also helps with weight covers two common concerns for a house cat. The limitation is the lack of calorie or fiber figures, and an allergen field that names an unrelated additive.

Who it's for

A home with a grown, less active cat that sheds and coughs up hair. Kittens and cats with poultry or fish sensitivities need another recipe.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

Beet pulp fiber helps carry swallowed hair through the digestive tract, and L-Carnitine supports fat use. Results depend on measured feeding, since the page gives no calorie data.
